Shadows of Salt and Sea

In the quaint, coastal town of Saltwood, Maine, Ellie Whitlock and her three closest friends-Luke, Ava, and Maya-live seemingly ordinary lives. But beneath the surface of their quiet town lies a dark and ancient secret. When the group stumbles upon a mysterious force known as the Shadow, they discover that they possess powers beyond their wildest dreams-powers that mark them as the town's last line of defense against a growing darkness. As they delve into Saltwood's hidden history, the friends uncover a legacy of witchcraft that binds them to the town's past. Guided by an ancient tome, the Codex Noctis, they must confront their deepest fears, face the Shadow, and make an unimaginable sacrifice to protect their home. But victory comes at a cost, and as they battle the Shadow, they realize that the darkness is not so easily vanquished. The shadows of Saltwood still hide secrets that could threaten everything they've fought for. Bound by magic and friendship, Ellie and her friends must decide how far they're willing to go to protect the ones they love and whether they can live with the consequences of their choices. As the final confrontation looms, they know one thing for certain: the darkness is never truly gone. In this spellbinding tale of magic, mystery, and the enduring power of friendship, four teens must uncover the truth, face the darkness within, and decide their own fates. The battle for Saltwood is just the beginning.
